Josiah is now 9 months old!
He has 6 teeth and I believe he has started teething again since drool is now a part of our daily outfits.
He still isn't crawling but he can get off his belly and onto all fours. He will move his hands but his knees just don't want to follow.
He is pulling himself up on things. He wants to be mobile so bad but I'm enjoying the fact that he can't freely roam the house yet.
He has a 9 month check up coming up so I'll find out how much he's grown and how much he weighs.
I am still breastfeeding, but I feed him table food first.
He still wakes during the night, at least twice.
He can drink from a cup with my help and he can pick up food with his fingers.

So my little chunck is doing pretty good.:-D

Shaelyn is 11 months! whew!
She just got her 4th tooth on Friday and the 5th is nearly broken through.
She nurses about 4-5 times each day always before table food. She is definitely wanting to nurse less and less :-(
She can drink from a sippy cup, but lots of it usually ends up on her bib!
Shaelyn is sooo close to walking and has been for 2 months now, but can crawl so fast that there is no motivation to take more steps...yet!
She stands on her own quite well.
She can do "So Big!" whenever we say, "How big is Shaelyn?"
I still carry her in the sling about twice a week and it keeps her happy to be close to mommy. Dh wore her in the sling for the first time yesterday - so sweet!
She sleeps from 9pm to about 8am without waking up.
One of her favorite comfort things is playing with my hair - I love it!
She absolutely LOVES her big brother - yesterday I was giving Trevor bed time snuggles and hugs while sitting on the floor. Shaelyn crawled over and pulled up on Trevor then laid her head on him and started patting his back!! It was soooo cute!!!! :-D
She has a word for me, dh and ds: Mama, Apa (for Papa) and Ba (for brother).
Shaelyn is very happy when dh comes in the room. She reaches for him and wants him to hold her. What a daddy's girl!

Azalia is 6 months old!
She is still a drool monster and there is still no sign of teeth!:???:
She is getting herself up on hands and knees and scooting backwards, probably only a matter of days before she figures out how to turn that into a forward crawl.
She is getting more and more vocal everyday and loves to tell 'stories', hehe. She was just telling me one that went something like this.. "lalala, mamama, yayaya, dadada.." and on and on tehe.
She's still soley nursing. I probably won't introduce solds for another few months at least.:-D
I can't really think of anything more to add other then a pic so here ya go:

Callum is 5 months old. :D
He is still soley nursing. Some nights only 2-3x, others he is up every two hours like clockwork!
He naps only briefly in the morning (maybe an hour), about two hours in the afternoon, and goes to bed around 6:30pm...sleeps 'til 7-8am. (waking for feeding of course!)
He can sit on his own, but still not for long periods of time. Although his core is strengthening...he can reach for a toy in front of him and sit back up now. Normally he topples over when he leans back. It's interesting because with my other two, once they sat, there was about a week of transition and then they sat without issue. They're all so different!:D
He can stand when we hold his hands for support.
TONS of drool, but no teeth yet.
He chews anything he can get his hands on...his fav toy is "Sophie" the giraffe. (Anyone heard of her? She's awesome!)
He rarely cries...instead he whines/complains with his mouth closed. "mmm...mmmmmmmm..mm" lol. When he does cry, he is *REALLY* mad.
